You still require gql requests to deal with. There's pretty much the same amount of code to build in BFF as it is to build the same in GQL... and probably less code on the frontend.

The value of GQL is pretty much equivalent to SOA orchestration - great in theory, just gets in the way in practice.

Oh and not to mention that GQL will inadvertently hide away bad API design(ex. lack of pagination).. until you are left questioning why your app with 10k records in total is slow AF.

Your response is incredibly anecdotal (as is mine absolutely), and misleading.

GQL paved the way for a lot of ergonomics with our microservices.

And there's nothing stopping you from just adding pagination arguments to a field and handling them. Kinda exactly how you would in any other situation, you define and implement the thing.

Yeah I love it when a request turns into an N+1 query because the FE guys needed 1 more field.
